Reading Time: 3 minutes

California, United States–(Newsfile Corp. – November 14, 2021) – Coinbase is one of the biggest blockchain-based cryptocurrency exchanges today. The native coin for Coinbase is called COIN. Coinbase exchange has been around since 2012 where it was just a platform to send bitcoin. Over the years, Coinbase has grown to be one of the biggest exchanges. Today, millions of investors are trading hundreds of tokens on Coinbase.

The crypto market growth has seen new exchanges coming to compete with established exchanges like Coinbase. One of the exchange platforms currently competing with Coinbase is Centcex, which is soon launching a public sale. The native coin for the Centcex exchange is called CENX, Binance Smart Chain token.

Just like Coinbase, Centcex is planning to develop one of the biggest crypto exchanges. Centcex is inspired by Coinbase, but the team wants to build a more powerful ‘Coinbase’. According to the Centcex team, they want to address major flaws of Coinbase. The platform will also give users a better Coinbase experience.

These are a number of areas Centcex is going to compete with Coinbase. The team says they want to give Centcex users an experience they are missing on Coinbase. This includes easier coin trading, easier manoeuvres than Coinbase and even more tokens on the exchange than Coinbase.

Security has been a big issue with Coinbase and other exchanges. Coinbase has reported cases of hacking, with customers losing a lot of money. The recent Coinbase hack was at the end of September when hackers stole coins from 6,000 Coinbase customers.

Unlike Coinbase, Centcex will be providing users with high security and privacy features. The team is building a platform that will not have hacking issues. Coinbase has severally been hacked, but Centcex is going to put it to a stop.

Issues of user experience at Coinbase is another problem that Centcex will fix. The exchange is promising to give users a better experience. From buying to swapping coins, Centcex will offer a better experience.

What makes Centcex different?

Centcex exchange is also promising to address the speed issue, which is common with Coinbase exchange. Sometimes it can take time to complete a single transaction on Coinbase. This is a problem that Centcex team is eradicating to become the next Coinbase. With the scalability addressed, the exchange will process more transactions per second than Coinbase.

To compete with Coinbase, Centex is building a platform that will reward members. Centcex staking programs share up to 80% APY of revenue collected from network products. Such rewards are attracting more members, including the Coinbase community. Coinbase stake is not offering such a percentage to its members.

The other way Centcex is competing with Coinbase is by allowing token holders to stake with multiple staking pools. So staked CENX will be earning more rewards than Coinbase token. With its higher staking rewards, the exchange will automatically be a tough Coinbase competitor.

The Centcex team is developing more products in its ecosystem than Coinbase. The platform is setting aside 3% of the 10% tax collected from transactions to fund unlimited products. In future, Centcex is planning to host more products than Coinbase to generate more revenue for staked coins. The 3% of the tax will buy back and burn tokens from the liquidity pool.

Centcex has announced a public sale. This will be the first step towards building a Coinbase competitor. The team is raising resources to build the biggest Coinbase competitor. Coinbase is a good platform, and with the team promising a better Coinbase experience, this will be a crypto project to watch.

Centcex exchange will charge lower fees than Coinbase. Just like Coinbase, the platform will support both Android and iOS users. The user interface will be better to give users a better experience. With better rewards, Centcex has what it takes to excite the crypto community.

Centcex ecosystem is going to be one of the strongest in terms of products and user experience.

Statement from the shareholders of Thames Water

Published

statement-from-the-shareholders-of-thames-water

LONDON, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The following statement has been provided on behalf of all of the shareholders of Thames Water:

“Shareholders and Thames Water have been working with the regulator Ofwat for over a year on how to address the complex challenges facing the business. These include both meeting current funding demands and the urgent need for substantial investment to improve performance.

“These discussions led to the submission of a business plan which included the largest ever investment programme by any UK water company – over £18 billion – to improve customer service and environmental standards. To support such unprecedented investment, shareholders committed to supporting a further £3.25 billion of investment on top of the £500 million provided last year, and pledged to take no cash out of the business until a turnaround was delivered. This was a solution which addresses the root cause of Thames Water’s challenges without the need for any taxpayer funding.

“However, after more than a year of negotiations with the regulator, Ofwat has not been prepared to provide the necessary regulatory support for a business plan which ultimately addresses the issues that Thames Water faces. As a result, shareholders are not in a position to provide further funding to Thames Water.

“Shareholders will work constructively with Thames Water, Ofwat and Government on how to address the consequences of Ofwat’s decision.”

Bitget Research Report Unveils 1.5 Million Daily Active Crypto Traders in Western European

Published

on

bitget-research-report-unveils-1.5-million-daily-active-crypto-traders-in-western-european

VICTORIA, Seychelles, March 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bitget Research, the research arm of the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has released a report analyzing the structure and the current landscape of the cryptocurrency markets of Western Europe. The region showcases characteristics such as large cryptocurrency trading volumes, high DeFi activity levels, a responsible and regulated approach, and relatively lower usage of P2P trading.

Key takeaways:

  • The number of local daily crypto traders ranges from 1.2 million to 1.5 million.
  • Germany and France lead in terms of crypto trading activity.
  • Austria witnessed the fastest growth in crypto traders between December 2022 to December 2023, with a 70% increase in users.
  • Western European users are generally well-educated and risk-conscious in their cryptocurrency investments.
  • The local trading strategy typically involves a combination of contracts and spot trading, and investment in mainstream assets.
  • Regional users demonstrate high participation in decentralized projects, NFTs and Web3 platforms, and active engagement in popular chain ecosystems like Solana.
  • DeFi usage constitutes the majority of cryptocurrency activity in Western Europe, while P2P trading volumes remain notably low.

Western European countries, characterized by developed economies and high general education levels, rank among the regions with the highest cryptocurrency adoption globally. The importance of Western Europe within the cryptocurrency industry continues to grow, as evidenced by the daily trading participation on centralized and decentralized exchanges ranging from 1.2 million to 1.5 million individuals. While Germany and France lead in activity levels, Austria has experienced the most rapid yearly growth in crypto traders, with a remarkable 70% surge in users. Germany closely followed with a 69% increase, while other Western European countries demonstrated slower growth rates ranging between 15% and 20%.

Overall, cryptocurrency activity in Western Europe benefits from a clearer level of compliance compared to other regions with countries like Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, France, Austria, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands adhering to the legislative framework established by the European Union for regulating crypto assets.

Centralized Exchanges and Spot Trading Prevail

Upon analyzing local market trends and trading instrument preferences, it was observed that users in Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands exhibit a preference for trading futures, whereas the remaining countries lean towards spot trading.

When it comes to trading cryptocurrency, the majority of Western European users demonstrate an inclination towards centralized exchanges, with CEX traffic surpassing DEX by 10 times. Among users opting for decentralized platforms, PancakeSwap and Uniswap emerge as the most popular exchanges. Additionally, Coinbase Wallet, Metamask, Bitget Wallet, and TrustWallet are the most commonly utilized cryptocurrency wallets across the eight countries.

Over the past year, the overall traffic to centralized exchanges from Western European users has shown a significant upward trend, especially in Germany, Switzerland, and Poland. Germany and Switzerland saw a year-over-year increase of more than 50%, with Poland experiencing a growth rate of 145%. However, the growth in France and Belgium was not as pronounced, with Belgium even seeing a 6.8% decline compared to the same period last year.

DeFi usage constitutes the majority of cryptocurrency activity in Western Europe, while P2P trading volumes remain notably low. One reason for the region’s limited adoption of crypto P2P is the prevalent practice of purchasing digital assets using fiat deposits or linked cards. In contrast, regions like South East Asia see P2P transfers as the primary instrument of cryptocurrency trading, given the lesser prevalence of card deposits.

Choice Of Assets And Trending Topics in Western Europe

Among popular sectors and projects, regional users demonstrate high participation in decentralized projects, familiarity with DEX tools and trading, NFTs, and Web3 platforms, and active engagement in popular chain ecosystems like Solana.

In terms of asset choice, emerging cryptocurrencies such as Ordinals, NFTs, RWAs, DePin, Solana ecosystem and meme coins have garnered significant attention among traders across Western Europe since the beginning of the year.

According to Western European market data, the trending topics and coins of choice include significant growth in the Solana ecosystem driven by token launches and airdrops, as well as increased interest in Manta Network and Ondo Finance. Additionally, there is sustained attention on second and third-tier chains such as CRO, FTM, and SUI, suggesting continued engagement despite minimal news or major announcements.

Western European Crypto Trader Behavior

The Bitget research suggests that cryptocurrency participants in the region typically possess a high level of education, exercise caution, and prioritize long-term investments. Additionally, a significant portion of local users actively engage in both online and offline forums, including community Ask Me Anything (AMAs), where they exchange market insights and discuss industry trends. Furthermore, they place a premium on legality and demonstrate a keen interest in adhering to Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.

In terms of strategy, choice of trading instruments and platforms, Western European traders show conservatism — they carefully examine the market options and once chosen, tend to be loyal users.

Local Market Predictions For 2024

Based on the comprehensive study, Bitget Research foresees the following trends in the Western European market for 2024:

  • Germany and France will remain key hubs of cryptocurrency activity in the region.
  • The interest of Western European users in on-chain solutions, particularly in the category of NFTs, DEXes, and blockchain games, will continue to grow. One-two blockchain projects run by Western European teams will gain the leading position in their sectors.
  • Decentralized exchanges will meet the growing demand for on-chain transactions, while emerging centralized exchanges, offering superior customer service and platform features, may gain new adoption among Western European users.
  • Increased engagement with Solana ecosystem projects will benefit crypto wallets, which offer integration across various blockchain ecosystems.
